To disable the touchpad from locking automatically, just modify the mouse settings in the Control Panel. I have provided the necessary steps below:

1. Click the Start Menu/Windows logo

2. Click the Control Panel

3. Click the Hardware and Sound

4. Click the Mouse

5. Locate the tab for the application of your mousepad

6. Remove the automatic disable settings and then click the OK button
